Choose the correct statement regarding projectile motion in the absence of air resistance. Assume the object is at sea level mov
1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
The magnitude of the acceleration in the x direction is always zero: TRUE.
At the apex, in the y direction the velocity is zero and the accelration is positive. TRUE.
At the apex, in the x direction, the velocity is zero and the acceleration is zero. FALSE. The accelration is zero, but the velocity is the same it had when it was shot.
The magnitude of the velocity in the y direction is always constant. FALSE, it's subject to gravity and it's velocity varies as
At the apex, in the Y direction, the velocity is negative and the acceleration is zero. FALSE. Velocity is zero, Acceleration is , towards the negative y axis

B) The object's velocity doubled.
Explanation:
The graph is missing: find it in attachment.
The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It is calculated as
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
We notice that:
- The kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass
- The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity
In the graph, one of the two quantities (either mass or speed) is represented on the x-axis, while the quantity on the y-axis is the kinetic energy.
First of all, we notice that the relationship is not linear: this means that the quantity on the x-axis cannot be the mass, so it must be the velocity.
Moreover, we notice that when the quantity on the x-axis increases from 1 to 2 (so, it doubles), the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4. This means that the object's velocity has doubled, therefore
B) The object's velocity doubled.
